Summary

A hummingbird’s egg accounts for 15 percent of an adult hummingbird’s weight. An adult goose is much larger than a hummingbird, but a goose’s egg accounts for only 4 percent of an adult goose’s weight. An adult ostrich is much larger than a goose, but ostrich eggs only account for 1.6 percent of an adult ostrich’s weight.

Strongly Supported Conclusions

The larger a bird species is, the smaller the ratio is between egg weight and the body weight of an adult bird.
